Sometimes they need a prod. :) Or more hours in the day. I know I haven't been as active at this as I'd have liked, mostly because my spare FreeBSD time has been devoted to the Doc. Project. <URL:http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/FreeBSD/policy-incoming.html>; covers what was meant to happen. Shortly after writing that up I got hit by RSI, which very effectively prevented me from doing anything with a keyboard for a couple of months. More -maintainers would definitely help. It also probably wouldn't hurt to have -maintainers automatically cc'd everytime a PR is closed, which should be a sufficiently frequent prod. Also, couldn't incoming/ be NFS mounted read-only on freefall? That should let committers (committers == has account on freefall, right?) even if the -maintainers have collectively gone on their summer holidays? I'm going to try and spend a couple of hours tomorrow (Monday) evening going through incoming/ to work through the worst of the dreck.
